What is the meal going to be? The type of wine you should choose relies completely on the meal.

actually, those rules (white wine with fish or chicken, red wine with beef) don't really apply anymore. it's better to choose something you enjoy drinking without worrying about the "rules".

I am aghast. I knew there was a reason I've never visited Wisconsin.
That's only really how things are in good ole Montgomery County, Maryland where the county government controls all sale of alcohol.

Here at school I can go to the corner store and buy a 24-pack.
